Karl Etta Eyong's future could soon be written in England. The Cameroonian striker from Levante is attracting growing interest from the Premier League, with two clubs reportedly already making approaches to the Spanish side for a potential transfer in this summer window.

According to several sources, the player has made England his top destination. This stance boosts the chances for the English teams pursuing him. Everton and West Ham are said to be among the clubs closely monitoring his situation, although no official bid has been made public yet.

Levante stands firm on its demands

The competition remains fierce, however. Turkish clubs are also keeping a close eye on the Cameroonian's situation and may make their move in the coming weeks. Despite these approaches, Levante seems reluctant to part ways easily with one of its most promising talents.

The Spanish club's management has reportedly set the player's price tag at over €30 million—a valuation that reflects their confidence in his potential and their intent to control negotiations.

During the last winter transfer window, CSKA Moscow had already reached an agreement with Levante for his transfer. However, the deal fell through as Etta Eyong declined the Russian club's offer, opting to pursue his career in a different league.

Regarded as one of the most closely watched African talents of his generation, the Cameroonian could be a major talking point in the coming weeks of the transfer market. His profile is attracting more and more suitors, with the Premier League now clearly emerging as his preferred destination.
